Richard February 19, 2017 for Model Number FGHS2631PF2 I can not get the ULTRAWF out of the water filter base. I have pushed it in time and time again without success. I have my new ULTRAWF ready to install but the old water filter will not come out. How do I get the old water filter out of the water filter base?
1 Answer Hello Richard. Use a flat screwdriver to try to pop out the filter as your pressing in on the release button. Otherwise, you will have to replace the filter base and filter on the unit. Read More...
Robert S February 09, 2017 for Model Number GFSS6KKYSS I have been using the ice maker/cube, crushed ice and water dispenser for several years changing filters as needed. I recently changed the filter (GE MWF) and after using the water dispenser a short time I get a chattering noise. I remove the reinstall the filter and get the chattering again after a time when dispensing water. My ice dispenser works with no problem as well as making ice with no problem. I was trying to find if a part might be needed to replace but find no listing in your parts directory for this. What causes this and how do I repair this?
1 Answer Robert, The most likely cause for this issue will be that the filter head is causing the chattering noise. The part number for the filter head will be WR17X12512. Read More...
Audra January 24, 2017 In trying to remove a stuck filter in the filter base. I took apart the filter base. Now I cannot figure out how to get that spring back into the base so that the filter locks in place. Any idea how do to that? My main issue if with the spring. Is there just one spring or two? I only have one but I am wondering if there wasn't a second one that popped off and rolled away out of sight when I took the base apart. Can't seem to figure it out from pictures on the internet. Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Audra, I'm sorry but the 242009604 is not considered to be a serviceable part by the manufacturer so there are no instructions on its disassembly and/or reassembly. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...

Cheryl G February 22, 2016 for Model Number FGHS2367KE1 Intially, I could not get the water filter to release so I bought a new filter and water filter housing. I tested the filter with the housing and the lock & release works on the new ones. I removed the water lines by compressing the blue disks & pulling on the lines. It didn't take much effort. The issue that I am having is with reattaching the water lines. No matter what I do water leaks around the disks when I turn it back on. Help!
1 Answer Hello Cheryl. You may need to remove the lines and cut off the end to provide a clean cut for inserting into the coupler. Make sure you press them all the way in until they lock into place. This should take care of the issue. If not, then the base may be defective. Read More...

John M. June 02, 2015 for Model Number FGUS2642LF0 I have a split in the water line that supplies water to the water filter base on the above photo shown. Would you have a part number for that replacment tubing.
Chris R April 10, 2015 for Model Number FFSC2323LS6 I need instructions or a link to a video that explains the procedure for replacing the water base for the filter, Frigidaire part 242009601. Thanks for your help
1 Answer Chris, Unfortunately the manufacturer does not have instructions for replacing the filter housing. There is also no video available. In order to replace you will need to remove the filter. With filter removed you will remove the lower housing. Make sure that water supply is shut off and you may have to disconnect the water line at the water valve. The lower housing appears to just be clipped in. Then there will be a screw in the upper housing and holding in the filter head. Remove the screws and the filter head should come forward in which you will disconnect the tubing by pushing in on the ring around the tube, then pull the tube out at the same time. Read More...
